    Unhappy Brain Tumor!? Freaking out!

    I'm really freaking out! I already posted a thread on my symptoms, but this is a bit different. I have almost COMPLETELY convinced myself I have a brain tumor. All the symptoms match up to mine. My headaches (back right side, fore-head, and both temples), dual-vision (sometimes at night), fatigue, etc. Today, at school I decided to exercise, figuring it may help with my problems. I did so, but then I started feeling a bit weird in my vision. I didn't know why! Then I sat down and started feeling really tired, like I could fall asleep right there. (I am a very skinny teen. Way out of shape)

    Also, I twitch. Lately, the following areas have been twitching a little:
    Top right side of head.
    Fingers
    Feet
    lower front of the neck area...

    It is really freaking me out. I have had anxiety since July of 2011, and as I stated previously, we have no money, my dad says it is all in my head and my mom tells me constantly I need to get a grip.

    *EDIT* I apologize if I am annoying anybody or sounding like a lunatic...

    Hey Alex. Forwells is right! No more Google! Doctors wouldn't let you leave the office/hospital if they thought there was any chance that you had a brain tumor. They would have set up follow-up appointments at least. They are trained professionals, and they aren't about to go on a hunch that you're okay, and then subject themselves to a possible lawsuit. I know it's hard to believe that your symptoms are related to anxiety. I had the same symptoms as you back in December, and I too was convinced that something horrible was happening to me. Once I finally stopped going on Google, and I began taking better steps to try and do relaxing things, I no longer have most of those symptoms. No more Google! Start there! I hope you feel better soon.

    Forwells: I checked out the sight. I think it eased my mind a bit to see the hundred or so symptoms there, most in which I have. I think I will be able to cover the cost. Thank you so much, man! Also, I am surprised that I am the first to say dual vision. Especially due to the fact that there are so many people on this forum.

    Scared&Worried: Yeah. I think it is like OCD. Like, I have to look them up. I'll try my best to stop, though. Soon, I am going to try and find an anxiety-management counselor and work some things out. ^-^

    Sucks. Hearing throbbing in my ears and my pressure in my head is getting worse.

    And I don't think this has to do with anxiety, but for some reason I have developed these little white, raised... things on my torso and arm. Two on my upper torso, one on my arm. My dad says they are just moles, but since I am a hypochondriac, it is just making me more anxious and worried.
    "But I know the rage that drives you. That impossible anger strangling the grief, until the memory of your loved one is just poison in your veins. And one day, you catch yourself wishing the person you loved had never existed, so you'd be spared your pain."
